Baptism Zone

"Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.” (Peter 3:21)

When we enter the waters of baptism, we proclaim the gospel message. Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and lives again. By joining in holy baptism, we're identifying ourselves with Him. It would be a shame to deny children the same identity in Christ.

Kidology is a non-denominational ministry, providing resources and ideas for practical kids ministry application. Each denomination will handle the baptism of children in their own way. Use what fits your church's practice, and leave the rest for others who may benefit. We hope you will find some helpful resources and encourage you to leave some behind as well!

Free Kids, Salvation and Baptism

Can kids really come to faith in Jesus? Should they be baptized—and if so, when? In this encouraging and practical article, Pastor Karl Bastian explores what Scripture says about childlike faith and salvation, clarifies the role of baptism in a child’s spiritual journey, and shares wise counsel for guiding both parents and children. Through a touching story of one young girl’s determination to obey Jesus, Karl reminds us that when a child is truly ready to be baptized, they’ll express that readiness with clarity and conviction. You’ll come away equipped to celebrate genuine faith in children while helping them take meaningful steps of obedience—at the right time and for the right reasons.
